Pot-shop controversy continues to incubate in Pacific Beach and across city Planners reject dispensary’s application for legal site north of Garnet Avenue By DAVE SCHWAB Amid a drive to close numerous unlicensed medical marijuana dispensaries in town, Pacific Beach planners gave a thumbs down to a proposal for a new, licensed cooperative just west of Interstate 5, north of Garnet Avenue. Land-use attorney Gina Austin, representing applicant Mission Bay Cooperative, gave

a slideshow presentation Aug. 27 to the Pacific Beach Planning Group (PBPG). In it, she detailed an application for a conditional-use permit (CUP) to convert property at 4645 De Soto Ave. in North Pacific Beach into a marijuana consumer cooperative. “I realize this is a very sensitive topic but I’m here to disSEE DISPENSARY, Page 5

Preliminary hearing for allegedly impaired wrong-way driver who hit cyclists meets with delay By NEAL PUTNAM A preliminary hearing for a woman accused of running down six bicyclists while driving the wrong way on Fiesta Island was delayed Aug. 28 to Oct. 14 in San Diego Superior Court. More preparation time was requested for the attorney for Theresa Lynn Owens, 49, of San Diego, who is charged with driving under

the influence of drugs in the Aug. 12 incident and with possession of methamphetamine. Owens pleaded not guilty to a new misdemeanor charge filed Aug. 26 that alleges she drove under the influence of drugs on July 20 in a separate incident. The prosecutor said she could not say anything more about it. Owens is accused of causing great bodily injury to Juan Carlos Vinolo,

43, who is paralyzed from the waist down because of a spinal cord injury. Mayor Kevin Faulconer, Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman and hundreds of others rode bicycles on Aug. 19 in a fundraiser to offset medical costs for Vinolo. Vinolo suffered some rib fractures and lost a kidney in the accident. Another rider suffered a broken arm, and Logan Bass, 26, of Pacific Beach, was hospitalized two days

after getting a mirror pushed into his ribcage. Deputy District Attorney Jessica Coto said 10 bicyclists were struck, but the charges reflect injuries to the six bicyclists most seriously hurt. Court records list the other victims as Beatrice Dormoy, Robert Bernhard, Kenneth Leipper and Steven Hale. Coto said the maximum sentence for Owens is 12 years and eight

months in prison if she is convicted and sentenced consecutively. She remains in custody on $300,000 bail. Coto said in court that Owens was “running around and rambling” following the accident. She said Owens “became combative” at the hospital after doctors found a baggie of methamphetamine inside a body cavity. She said doctors had to give Owens a sedative to calm her down.

High-profile redevelopment of Pacific Beach Retail Center may be complete by summer Redevelopment of the Pacific Beach Retail Center at Garnet Avenue and Ingraham Street is under way, with demolition of the familiar, existing buildings immi-

nent and construction starting soon, said developers. A reopening is planned next summer. Vicki Piazza of CarrierJohnson+Culture architects told the

Pacific Beach Planning Group (PBPG) Aug. 27 that a decision was made to demolish all of the site’s 1960s-era buildings rather than attempt to “update 50-year-old

buildings to modern standards.” PBPG chairman Brian Curry thanked Carrier for being willing to discuss project particulars to “put to rest all the rumors” about tenants. He noted the retail center’s location does not require developers to submit to discretionary review including scrutiny by the community’s planning group. Piazza said five tenants will be moving into the revamped, slightly smaller building space in a year’s time. Two of them, Staples and San Diego Credit Union (SDCCU), were there previously and are returning. SDCCU currently operates out of a temporary trailer in the parking lot. New tenants are to include a Walgreens pharmacy with a drive-thru to be located on the eastern end of the project site. The western end of the site is where a “specialty” market, believed to be Trader Joe’s, will be relocating from 1211 Garnet Ave. A new PetSmart will also be moving into the newly renovated retail space. “These are not going to be big-box stores,” Piazza said. “They will be more neighborhood scale. “Demolition will start any day now with construction beginning in September 2014, with the buildings almost done by April of next year,” Piazza said. Piazza said the new tenants will be able to move into their respective spaces next spring and do tenant improvements.

By DAVE SCHWAB

“The center is expected to be up and operational by August of next year,” she said. Piazza said redevelopment will not affect the Vons gas station on the corner of the lot, which will remain open during construction. There are also plans to put a bikeshare station on the project site, as well as providing parking space for electric and hybrid vehicles and van pools. Piazza added there will be a total of 270 spaces in the parking lot once remodeling is complete. Parking in the retail center was reconfigured to add 30 additional more spaces, Piazza said, adding stalls would be slightly larger than usual — 9 feet instead of 8. Curry said he’s written a letter to public officials arguing that there “should have been public outreach on a project like this that was right in the center of PB.” Asked if there was any anti-graffiti coating planned to be used for any of the new buildings, Piazza replied there would be “on the main face of the building and on the back side.” Planner Chris Olson suggested any bike racks used in the remodeled center be the ones with a “surfboard design,” which are prominent around town, in order to “maintain uniformity throughout the community.” The PBPG voted 14-4-1 to approve the massive redevelopment project as proposed.

Plenty of construction, administrative changes in store for dawn of PB’s new school year By DAVE SCHWAB The first week of school is a big deal for all six schools in the Mission Bay Cluster — particularly Mission Bay High School — which is breaking in a new principal and a new sports stadium this year. “The Mission Bay Cluster is excited to announce that Ernest Remillard, who was the principal at Pacific Beach Middle School, is now thrilled to take the helm at Mission Bay High School,” said Maria Mikus, 2014-15 MB Cluster president. “Mr. Remillard brings boundless energy and a passion for the success of the MB Cluster of schools. The entire MB Cluster welcomes Mr. Remillard and looks forward to supporting his efforts in taking MBHS to the next level.” The MB Cluster also includes Pacific Beach Middle, as well as Crown Point Junior Music Academy, Pacific Beach, Kate Sessions and Barnard Asia Pacific Language Academy elementary schools.

PB’s oldest coffee house may make way for planned senior-care facility

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Letter writer reconsiders stance against SeaWorld orca treatment

By DAVE SCHWAB

Pacific Beach’s oldest coffee house could be a casualty of a new residential elder-care facility proposed at the corner of Cass Street and Grand Avenue. The Pacific Beach Plan Group (PBPG) voted Aug. 27 to sanction plans for a 65-unit, 55,968square-foot residential elder-care facility at 4322 Cass St. near Javanican, would displace The Purple Café, which the developers of Oakmont Senior Living say would be replaced by their project and house up to 80 residents. Bill Mabry, a partner with Oakmont involved in project development, told planners his firm has built nearly 40 senior residentialcare facilities throughout California since the 1980s, including one operating in Escondido. Mabry said the new planned seniors structure would go where The Purple Café is and the adjoining empty lot where the defunct dive shop used to operate. “It makes sense for us to develop here, and we’ve come up with a design that we think people would really enjoy and fit the pedestrian orientation of the area,” Mabry said, adding a new coffee shop is now planned as part of their corner redevelopment. An architect for the seniors project said it will have “modern

We had 64 last year.” McMurrin said the event harkens to the old days at OMBAC when volleyball was a bigger part of the club’s program before the advent of the Over The Line (OTL) Tournament each July. The event has room to grow. “We’re reviving the tradition of

PBPG colleague Chris Olson said, “There wasn’t going to be a coffee shop” in the original design, adding developers “have pretty much complied with everything we’ve asked. They’ve done a nice job of listening to our concerns.” Planner Eve Anderson, noting she’s had personal experience with senior-care facilities, said she felt

this one is “too close to the beach. “The building is lovely but the location is questionable,” Anderson said, adding it’s near bars that are open until 2 a.m. “This isn’t a great location for seniors. The facility is gorgeous, but they just need to pick it up and move it somewhere else.” Planner Imelda McClendon disagreed that the proposed seniors facility was inappropriate for the neighborhood. “We’re trying to make Pacific Beach more family oriented, and to me this is a great project to start that process,” she said. The PBPG voted in favor of the senior-care project 14-4-1.

We’ll see how things go.” Guests have to be 21 and up and there is a $5 entry fee to watch the tournament. Drinks will be served at a courtside beer garden. Teams are encouraged to dress up for the epic tournament as prizes will be rewarded for best/most creative team uniforms. For more information about the

Home Owners Lose Thousands When Selling Their Home SAN DIEGO, A new report has just been released which reveals 7 costly mistakes that most homeowners make when selling their home. And a 9 Step System that can help you sell your home fast and for the most amount of money. This industry report shows clearly how the traditional ways of selling homes have become increasingly less and less effective in today's market. The fact of the matter is that fully three quarters of homesellers don't get what they want for their homes and become dillusioned and worse – financially disadvantaged when they put their homes on the market.

In response to your Beach & Bay Press story “Room to Roam,” published Aug. 21, Page 1: I, like so many others, watched the documentary film “Blackfish” and had an immediate reaction. I took issue with the fact that SeaWorld San Diego held marine mammals in captivity, exploited them and said they were doing nothing wrong. When “Blackfish” premiered, my initial reaction was anger and emotion. A lot of the time, that is our initial reaction to any event or breaking news. I got so caught up in the emotion that I forgot to look at the facts. I continued to let emotion decide my opinion up until SeaWorld’s latest announcement [to double the marine park’s orca environment]. In the last issue of Beach & Bay Press, the front page featured an article titled “Room to Roam.” It discussed Sea World’s latest expansion of their tanks and the reactions to the announcement. There were predictable reactions on both sides, but I had a quite different one. It made me stop and think. I asked myself, “Was this a good thing? Did it change anything?” Once I started to think, I stopped letting emotion decide my opin-

As this report uncovers, most homesellers make 7 deadly mistakes that cost them literally thousands of dollars. The good news is that each and every one of these mistakes is entirely preventable. I answer to this issue, industry insiders have prepared for a free special report entitled "The 9 step System to Get Your Home Sold Fast and For Top Dollar."

ions for me. I realized that SeaWorld has had a much more profound impact on me than I previously thought. SeaWorld was responsible for creating the respect for marine mammals that later made me so angry at SeaWorld itself. It has educated me about marine mammals, inspired me and mystified me. This latest announcement about the tank expansion proves that it is willing to listen and make changes if necessary. Once that happened, I started to think — and more importantly, believe — that SeaWorld could once again fill me with the passion, mystery and magic it once did.

cuss the land-use issues today, not the right or wrong of the city passing a (medical-marijuana) ordinance,” said Austin. “We don’t want to discuss the merits of medical marijuana,” agreed group chairman Brian Curry. “We want to keep it to issues related to land use.” Austin continued her case. “We don’t have any significant outstanding issues with the city and the facility would not be within 1,000 feet of any sensitive uses — schools, parks, etc. — which puts us in a unique situation, being one of the few applicants able to say that,” added Austin. Noting that an existing 2,470square-foot building on the 0.22acre site would be converted for use by the cooperative, Austin said plans are to update and renovate the building, put in sidewalk improvements and add new landscape, as well as provide ample parking and security. The cooperative intends to be open seven days a week between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. and have a minimum of three on-site staff, including a security guard. “If cooperatives are going to go in somewhere, let’s pick the best locations to put them in,” Austin said. “We believe this is one of the best locations.” The majority of PBPG planners and local residents attending the

Abeles; and the dispensary operating at 936 Garnet Ave. at the time, Green Earth Management, Inc., that was doing business as Green Earth Herbal Collective. The dispensary vacated and settled with the city, but the property owners have continued to litigate the matter with the city and lease to marijuana dispensaries. The dispensary Planet Greens currently operates at 936 Garnet Ave. At a summary judgment hearing on Aug. 29, the Hon. Ronald S. Prager issued a final permanent injunction against each of the defendants for their unlawful conduct, restraining them from unlawfully maintaining a dispensary anywhere in the city and to pay $120,000 in civil penalties and $1,800 in investigative costs to the city. The City Attorney’s Office has two other dispensary cases pending with the Nobels, which were filed in late 2011, and a number of newer cases.

meeting saw it differently, however. PBPG board member and outspoken medical-marijuana opponent Scott Chipman argued the property owner’s business and the purpose for which they intend to use their land can’t be separated. “This is inappapropriate in that it’s a completely lawless industry that targets youth,” Chipman said. “The district attorney has been trying to close these down,” Chipman said, arguing teen marijuana use is drastically on the rise. Chipman had other objections. “There is no primary-caregiver relationship (between cooperatives and patients) as required by California state law,” he said. “We’re not obligated to authorize this business just because the city would authorize it. The regulations the city requires are not strong enough to protect our community.” Board colleague Paul Falcone disagreed. “This is exactly what we want in terms of land use, taking down old buildings and adding parking,” Falcone said. The De Soto cooperative had previously been opposed 8-0 by a PBPG subcommittee. Asked why the project was turned down, subcommittee chairman Curtis Patterson said, “There were a lot of questions regarding supporting another medical-marijuana shop when there are several illegally operating in town already.” The owner of a storage lot near the proposed medical-marijuana dispensary implored the group not

“Property owners, as well as dispensary operators, need to know they will be held accountable for violating our zoning laws,” said City Attorney Jan Goldsmith. “The City Attorney’s Office will be continuing to shut down dispensaries operating illegally in the city of San Diego.” In early March 2014, the City Attorney’s Office filed a similar injunction against these same defendants who were leasing to four dispensaries in different suites at another commercial property of theirs at 3045 Rosecrans St.: Greenworks SD, Fresh Alternative Consulting, Green Wellness and SB Health. The city obtained temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions or default judgments against the property owners and all the dispensaries. Notably, Greenworks SD moved to Engineer Road in San Diego where the dispensary caught on fire in July 2014 as a result of the extraction of hash oil on site. The operator was arrested. The Nobels agreed to issue eviction notices and unlawful detainer actions to the dispensaries currently operating at their properties at: 2603 University Ave., 936 Garnet Ave., 1150 Garnet Ave., 2015

San Diego lifeguard dive team members recovered the body of a missing kayaker in Mission Bay on Aug. 24 after a two-day search. The body of Abdul Razak Shanun, a 17-year-old exchange student from Ghana, was discovered about 9:35 a.m. on Aug. 24 in about 25 feet of water. The San Diego County Coroner’s Office lists Shanun’s death as an accidental drowning Shanun, a promising basketball player, was reportedly being courted by San Diego State University and other American colleges. The Aug. 24 search-and-recovery effort involved vessels from the Parks Ranger Lake Team and San Diego police, both equipped with side-scanning sonar. Five members of the San Diego Lifeguard Services Dive Team were deployed and additional divers were on hand, if needed.

One key to Tower’s success, said Aarstol, was catching the wave of popularity early on during the emergence of the new water sport and riding it as it began cresting. “Paddleboarding is less than 5 percent of the [surf] market, but anybody from age 5 to 75 years old can get on a paddleboard and, in 20 minutes, be pretty proficient,” he said. “Not a lot of sports are like that.” Besides being relatively easy to learn, Aarstol said, paddle-

After an hour on Aug. 23, the search turned into a recovery operation and continued until about 8 p.m. The search resumed at first light on Aug. 24. MAN ARRAIGNED AT HOSPITAL ON WEAPON CHARGE

A suicidal man who pointed a gun at police in Mission Bay Park before police shot him Aug. 6 was arraigned in his hospital bed at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla on two counts of exhibiting a weapon in the presence of police officers. A not guilty plea was entered for Lance Marshall Tamyo, 45, who remains in the hospital. San Diego Superior Court Judge Joan Weber set bail at $150,000 and Tamyo will be transferred to jail after he is

boarding provides a number of attractive recreational and athletic opportunities. “It can be a competitive or a social thing,” he said. “One hour of standup paddleboarding is equivalent to eight hours of surfing in the waves, because it’s constant action and it’s a whole-body workout.” Finding a way to cut costs is one reason why Aarstol’s company has thrived, creating, manufacturing and direct marketing its own brand. “We sell direct to consumers through our website, www.towerpaddleboards.com,” said Aarstol, noting that such strategy can

News discharged from the hospital. Deputy District Attorney Michael Runyon said Tamyo faces a maximum sentence of three years and eight months in prison, if convicted. Runyon declined to comment about Tamyo’s medical condition. On Aug. 6, Tamyo called 911 from his car, saying he was suicidal, had a gun and wanted officers to kill him. Police kept him talking on his cell phone, but Tamyo got out of his car and walked around a grassy area holding a gun. He allegedly pointed the weapon at several officers and at a police helicopter before he was shot near De Anza Cove and rushed to the hospital. — Neal Putnam LOCAL FIRST-RESPONDERS SET TO BE HONORED SEPT. 17

Lifeguards performed 164 rescues and 182 medical aids. In addition, lifeguards performed 7,823 “preventative acts,” such as advising beachgoers of regulations and warning of hazardous conditions. OLDER DRIVER FAILS TO PUT VAN IN PARK, CRUSHES FOOT

A 71-year-old woman was transported to the hospital shortly after midnight on Aug. 30 when she reportedly failed to put her van into the “park” position as she got out of the vehicle, causing the van to roll backward, crushing her left foot. The incident took place in the 4600 block of Ocean Boulevard in Pacific Beach. Police officials said neither alcohol nor drugs was involved. The police department’s Traffic Division is evaluating the matter. AMATEUR MODELS SOUGHT FOR BATHING-SUIT FASHION SHOW

We’ve grown our brand one customer at a time. They have direct access. They can call us and I’ll pick up the phone and they can talk to me. “It’s a modern version of Old School business, to know your customers,” he said. “With social media and direct marketing, we’ve gotten back to that small town-type of business.

Sports

Hydroplanes set to shred up waters of Mission Bay for 50th year Drivers Jimmy Shane and J. Michael Kelly will be battling for supremacy Sept. 12-14 when the unlimited hydroplanes return for the sport’s 50th anniversary on Mission Bay. Shane, piloting the Oh Boy Oberto boat, and Kelly, with the Graham Trucking boat, have each won a pair of races in the H1 Hydroplane series of San Diego Bayfair. Since 1964, when legendary hydro driver Bill Muncey convinced the City Council that the bay was the right place for hard-charging, rooster-tail spewing unlimited hydroplanes, the racing-entertainment festival has entertained an estimated five million spectators. The 2.5-mile racecourse is the longest and fastest on the H1 Unlimited hydroplane circuit. The local event, which flew San Diego Thunderboat and Bayfair banners, has experienced its high and low tides, but the Bayfair board of governors kept it afloat. Muncey, who would win 63 races in his career, actually mortgaged his Mt. Helix home to finance the first race with Mariner Too, driven by Warner Gardner, the unlikely winner. Gardner described it as a bucking bronco. Although it never won another race, the hull was used for the first turbine experiment, a powerful

engine that became the sport’s nameplate. The biggest news in the last 25 years became the dominance of jetturbine power. Since 1984, most races have been won by boats using the Lycoming T-55 L-7C engine, intended for use in the Vietnam era’s Chinook helicopter. Lap speeds increased from 140 to 170 miles per hour. The so-called glory days came

under an Anheuser Busch sponsorship. But the Bayfair oversight body would pay a price because Bernie Little’s Budweiser boats dominated, winning 12 races with several pilots. The door had opened to major corporate involvement in unlimited racing. In 1964, Little introduced the first in his long line of Miss Budweiser hydroplanes, sponsored by Anheuser-Busch. His drivers won

141 races between 1966 and 2004. Still, San Diego lost out on the racing sponsorship twice. The bay was silent in 1971-73 and 2009. Muncey had been tough elsewhere, but it took him eight years to post a victory here. He won one more before losing his life in an Acapulco hydroplane crash in 1981. Chip Hanaur, another Hall of Fame driver, was approaching Muncey’s overall record but chose retirement rather than topping his old friend’s record. That wasn’t the case with Dave Villwock, who eventually would win 67 races. Ironically, it was Muncey’s widow, Fran, who recommended Villwock, a fresh rookie, for the Circus Circus boat. It was Bill Muncey’s old Atlas Van Lines boat renamed. Villwock set the world lap speed record of 173.384 mph in 1999 at Bayfair. Villwock has won a record nine Bill Muncey Cups, including his first unlimited hydroplane race victory. Fran, often called the “Grande Dame” of hydroplane racing, continued as a boat owner until 1988, then took a position on Bayfair’s board of governors. Currently, she owns two restaurants in Chula Vista. Fran Muncey said the hardest decision she ever had to make was to continue with the racing industry. At the time, she said she was very angry and did not want to keep racing, but did it for him “because he loved the sport so.” In 1988 the San Diego race drew nationwide attention when the Circus Circus and Miss Madison — buffeted by a wind gust — did simultaneous back-flips on the

main straight. They were saved from serious injury by cab-overs, which recently had been introduced to the sport. The roll call of winning drivers on the Bay included Ron Munson, Hanaur, Bill Sterett, Dean Chenoweth, Mickey Remund,Tom D’Eath and Steve David. A 20-foot-high sculpted tail fin, dedicated to Muncey by the Thunderboats Unlimited of San Diego, stands near the boat pits. Executive director Gregg Mansfield said H1 Unlimited expects to have 10 boats ready for the heat races. Additionally, they anticipate six or seven Grand Prix West piston-powered entries to see action off Ski Beach. Fifty to 60 smaller class boats will compete at Crown Point.

Dining & Entertainment Legendary flautist Weisberg eases back into limelight, slates set at Dizzy’s By BART MENDOZA Although Tim Weisberg is considered one of the greatest contemporary jazz-fusion flute players of all time, his music is actually much more expansive than that, taking in elements of pop, rock and progressive sounds. His remarkable musicianship hasn’t been confined to his own work. Discovered by legendary trumpeter Herb Alpert, who released his early work via his A&M Records, Weisberg has been a session man for numerous artists, including The Carpenters, The Monkees, Dave Mason and Herbie Hancock. But perhaps his bestknown work is his collaborations with Dan Fogelberg, which yielded the hit song “The Power of Gold,” hitting No. 24 in 1978. Weisberg is no stranger to San Diego, having performed at numerous venues in town since the 1970s from SDSU’s Backdoor to Anthology. “San Diego was the first place I remember (making an impact) after my first album came out,” Weisberg recalled. “Herb Alpert told me,‘You’ve got a following down there!’ I think I was accepted as a performer in San Diego before the rest of the nation.” Appearing at Dizzy’s on Saturday, Sept. 13, Weisberg has released 22 albums to date, though he hasn’t issued new music since “Time Traveler” in 1999. His reasons are succinct. “The problem was that [labels] were offering deals, but the kind of music that they wanted me to perform was something that I would not find satisfying,” Weisberg said. “One way to look at it is that maybe I was spoiled during my career up to that point. “I really recorded things that made me feel something emotionally,” he said. “Whether they were somebody else’s songs to me was

“I love the interaction with the audience. I’m still astounded and in awe of the power of music. And it gets reinforced now that my hiatus is over and I’m back to performing.” TIM WEISBERG Contemporary jazz-fusion flute player

kind of immaterial, but I had to feel something for it. Then I could approach it with that emotion and get the kind of performance that other people would enjoy. When it ceased being that, I just didn’t want to do it.” Weisberg soon took a hiatus from performing for several years,

rekindling his love of playing live with a show at the defunct downtown San Diego club Anthology in 2010. “Basically, I just started getting dates together after that, I just kind of put a tip-toe into it,” he said. For this show, he will be joined by guitarist Chuck Alvarez, keyboardist Barnaby Finch, bassist David Hughes and drummer Maria Martinez. “They’re all really great players,” Weisberg said. “Sometimes I’m up there and I just step back and go, ‘Wow!’ I forget I’m the leader, and it’s like, I hope I can take a solo after that.” Ironically, Weisberg became a flute player by happenstance. Attending the first day of music class at school, students, in alphabetical order, were allowed to pick an instrument. “Harry Abrams got what he wanted, Constance got what she wanted. I was last in the class,” he joked. “I had the choice between bassoon and flute. I went with the flute because it was smaller and easy to carry.” With more than four decades of making music behind him, its clear Weisberg still enjoys being on stage as much as ever. “I love the interaction with the audience,” he said. “I’m still astounded and in awe of the power of music. And it gets reinforced now that my hiatus is over and I’m back to performing. People come up and they say, ‘I saw you 25 years ago,’ or they tell me a story about their first date or when they got married and my music played. It’s almost kind of a magic; not my magic specifically, but a process. “It’s another reason why I practice every day, to be in the best form to be able to do that,” he said. “It still blows me away.” • TIM WEISBERG: Saturday, Sept. 13, at DIZZY’S, 4275 Mission Bay Drive. 8 p.m. $20. www.dizzysjazz.com.

LIVEMUSIC >> By BART MENDOZA It’s a long-overdue honor, but one of San Diego’s living legends, bluesman Tomcat Courtney, will be bestowed the Lifetime Achievement Award on Oct. 6 at this year’s San Diego Music Awards. Courtney is in lofty company, joining the likes of Iron Butterfly, The Zeros, Nick Reynolds of the Kingston Trio and other music icons. Courtney plays at various venues around town, but his home venue is Café-Bar Europa, where he can be found Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7 p.m. After four decades of giving his heart and soul to the local music community, it’s nice to see him getting some reciprocal love — and a trophy — from San Diego’s music lovers. • TOMCAT COURTNEY: Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays through September at CAFE-BAR EUROPA, 873 Turqouise St. 7 p.m. 21 and up. www.theturquoise.com/wordpress. One of the area’s best guitarists, Hank Easton performs at the Kona Kai Resort on Sept. 5. A virtuoso performer, Easton is adept at everything from soul to pop to jazz, one of the qualities that’s made him a standout when he performs with the Steely Damned. For this show, he’ll be in solo mode, the better to hear every nuance of his playing. He has three albums to date, most recently “Eleven,” but live is where he truly shines. At the Kona Kai he’s the perfect soundtrack to a nice dinner or romantic evening overlooking the beautiful marina. • HANK EASTON: Friday, Sept. 5, 6 p.m., at the KONA KAI RESORT, 1551 Shelter Island Drive. www.resortkonakai.com.

shows over the next few months, hopefully giving that burgeoning scene a home. On Sept. 5, Brick by Brick will host a show featuring Monarch, Fallen Hero and Hexxen. The latter is of particular interest, a metal band from Tijuana that sings in Spanish, making for a particularly diverse bill. For those who like their tunes loud, aggressive and in your face, Brick by Brick is the perfect place to bang your head. Earplugs optional. • HEXXEN: Friday, Sept. 5 at BRICK BY BRICK, 1130 Buenos Ave. 8 p.m. 21 and up. www.brickbybrick.com. The Joshua White Trio performs at Dizzy’s on Sept. 12. A nominee for this year’s San Diego Music Awards, White is an enormous talent.

Featuring bassist Ben Wanicur and drummer Julien Cantelm, Dizzy’s is the

perfect environment to hear original jazz by White. Unlike many music venues where music is an add-on to the drink specials, this venue is a listening room where music is the focus. • THE JOSHUA WHITE TRIO: Friday, Sept. 12, at DIZZY’S, 4275 Mission Bay Drive. 8 p.m. www.dizzysjazz.com. Dance fans will want to head to Humphreys Backstage Lounge on Sept. 13 for a set from Pop Vinyl. This multi-talented band has an excellent mix of tunes in its repertoire, capable of anything from Parliament to the Violent Femmes. What sets it apart from typical cover bands, however, is its hip-hop material, which includes everything from Tupac to Jay Z, making for a well-rounded set that no one else in town can touch. Anyone who wants to spend their Saturday night on the dance floor needs look no further. • POP VINYL: Saturday, Sept. 13 at HUMPHREYS BACKSTAGE LIVE, 2241 Shelter Island Drive. 9 p.m. www.humphreysbackstagelive.com.

On Sept. 7, beginning at 4 p.m., the Kona Kai will have the best bill yet, featuring Sharon Hazel Township, Orphan Lane, Francesca Valle, Rebecca Jade, Amanda Portella, Tori Roze and Gayle Skidmore. While all the performers are great, Skidmore is a particularly noteworthy talent, winning a San Diego Music Award in 2012 with her winsome pop and indie rock tunes.

The Mission Bay Cluster (MBC) is an organization that represents the

six public schools in Pacific Beach: Mission Bay High, PB Middle, Kate Sessions Elementary, PB Elementary, Crown Point Junior Music Academy and the Barnard Asian Pacific Language Academy. The MBC was formed to provide a democratic, representative process for providing recommendations to the San Diego Unified School District and the Board of Education, and to explore and support efforts

to enhance academic excellence and enrichment opportunities in all six schools. Meetings are usually held the first Thursday of the month and rotate between the six public schools. The first Mission Bay Cluster meeting of the new school year will be Thursday, Sept. 4 at Mission Bay High School at 6 p.m. Please join us and help support our vision of outstanding public education in Pacific Beach.

Demystifying the Myths of Solar Attend the Pacific Beach Solar Workshop to Learn the Facts Did you know solar power systems produce better when it’s cooler outside, which is why Pacific Beach and coastal communities in San Diego are perfect locations for solar power? The city of San Diego was recently ranked the top solar city per capita in the nation by Environment America, and Sullivan Solar Power, the top installer in the SDG&E utility territory, is hosting an educational seminar to provide property owners more information about solar. The local company is hosting an educational seminar on Saturday, September 6 for residents to learn solar power 101. The free information luncheon will cover federal incentives, financial savings, technological advancements, owning vs leasing a system, how to evaluate credible solar companies and local case studies. It will also include information about the new city financing, the HERO Program, where property owners can pay for their solar power system through property taxes. “Property Assessed Clean Energy is a game changer for San Diego property owners who have thought about going solar,” said Daniel Sullivan, President and

Founder of Sullivan Solar Power, “Residents who were not approved in the past for solar financing may now be approved through HERO.” San Diegans are invited to attend the educational workshop

this Saturday, September 6 from 11 a.m. – 12 p.m. Lunch and refreshments will be provided. To RSVP for this event, please call 1-800-SULIVAN or email tara.kelly@sullivansolarpower.com.

Environmental Review Single-use plastic bag ban moves ahead The California Assembly last week approved SB 270 by senators Alex Padilla (D-Pacoima), Kevin de Leon (D-Los Angeles) and Ricardo Lara (D-Huntington Park/Long Beach). The bill would phase out single-use plastic bags in California grocery stores, convenience stores, liquor stores and pharmacies. The bill now goes to the state Senate for consideration. A coalition of environmental, labor and business groups, along with local governments are supporting SB 270, including Californians Against Waste, Environment California, Heal the Bay, Clean Seas Coalition, California League of Conservation Voters, Coastkeeper, Surfrider, United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Western States Council, California Grocers Association and the California Retailers Association. “This is a huge step forward,” said Padilla. “Single-use plastic bags not only litter our beaches, but also our mountains, our deserts and our rivers, streams and lakes. SB 270 strikes the right balance. It will protect the environment and it will protect California jobs as the state transitions to reusable bags. “A throw-away society is not sustainable,” he said. “With SB 270, we have an opportunity to greatly reduce the flow of billions of singleuse plastic bags that are discarded throughout our state. This is good for California and reflects our values as a state that cares about the environment, sea life and wildlife,” Padilla added. Each year, more than 14 billion single-use plastic bags are handed

out by retailers, according to ban supporters. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, 88 percent of plastic bags and sacks are not recycled. In California, only 3 percent are recycled, according to the state agency CalRecycle. Singleuse plastic bags increase costs to local governments for cleanup because so few of the bags are recycled. There is also a very real environmental cost to marine life, birds and other wildlife, according to advocates. Based on the experience of local jurisdictions that have enacted ordinances, a statewide policy would save local governments millions of dollars annually. The combined cost of single-use plastic bags to California consumers and state and local government for use, cleanup and disposal is estimated to be in the tens of millions of dollars annually. Eighty-six local governments throughout the state have adopted plastic-bag ban ordinances covering more than 115 cities and coun-

ties combined. In doing so, many of these communities have eliminated the significant costs associated with plastic bags, as well as substantially reduced the volume of bags entering their landfills. The plastics industry has been fiercely opposed to the legislation. According to Padilla’s office, SB 270 would: • Prohibit, beginning July 1, 2015, grocery stores and pharmacies from making available singleuse plastic bags. If paper bags are offered to customers, they would have to include recycled content. • Prohibit, beginning July 1, 2016, convenience stores and liquor stores from making available single-use plastic bags. • Grandfather in existing local ordinances. • Provide up to $2 million in competitive loans to businesses transitioning to the manufacture of reusable bags.

Quicker beach water-quality testing bill heads to governor; alerts expedited The California Senate voted 34-0 on Aug. 29 to send the governor legislation permitting county public health officials to use a quicker water-quality test to warn California’s 238 million beachgoers of contaminated water. “SB 1395 safeguards the public and protects local economies,” said bill author Sen. Marty Block (Dist. 39). “We want the public alerted to any health danger as quickly as possible. We also want beaches reopened as soon as possible for visitors to enjoy once safety is assured. A quick reopening minimizes the economic loss to small businesses dependent upon beachgoers.” He said that over the last Memorial Day weekend more than 450,000 people enjoyed San Diego’s beaches. Swimming, surfing or participating in other water activities in polluted water can result in stomach flu, skin rashes, pinkeye, respiratory infections, meningitis and hepatitis. The California Coastkeeper Alliance states that every year about one million Southern California beachgoers contract gastrointestinal illness from exposure to polluted coastal areas at a public health cost of $21 to $51 million. Under the state’s Beach and Bay Water Quality Monitoring Program, county public health departments perform beach water sampling and close beaches or post warning signs if water quality is below state standards. Current permissible tests are culture-based,

involving a multiple sample standard for three indicators — total coliform, fecal coliform and Enterococcus. Test results are typically available in 24 to 48 hours — and sometimes as long as 96 hours — leaving beachgoers at risk before results are obtained. To address this slow response time, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published an alternative testing method called qualitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), which shortens the result-waiting period to four hours — a significant time savings. This test is genetically-based rather than culture-based and measures the presence and amount of DNA from Enterococcus. Block’s bill would authorize local health officers to use the rapid qPCR test to determine beach water quality. The jurisdiction must first perform the test side by side with the currently approved culture-based test over an entire beach season to determine that the qPCR test is a reliable indicator of public health standards. Additionally, the qPCR method must be performed in compliance with the federal EPA’s established guidance and with oversight by the California Department of Public Health. SB 1395 is supported by business and government entities in San Diego, including the city, county, Port District and Regional Chamber of Commerce. The bill is also supported by a host of statewide environmental organizations. — Staff and contribution
